| Abstract |
A 78-year-old man with gastric diffuse large B cell lymphoma presented with persistent Helicobacter canis bacteremia while receiving chemotherapy. An examination of his medical history revealed a close exposure to dogs. The patient recovered after 4 weeks of antibiotic therapy. Immunocompromised persons who maintain close contacts with dogs maybe at risk for this infection. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 31 January 2019.
All research outputs
#7,454,951
of 22,792,160 outputs
Outputs from Infection
#409
of 1,401 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#32,573
of 91,899 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Infection
#3
of 10 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,792,160 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,401 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.4. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 91,899 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 20th percentile – i.e., 20% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 10 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 7 of them.
